Great and clear How To video! You showed the work being done rather than talk talk talk like so many others. You gave me the confidence to do it. Thank you!

Hi Jeff, I appreciate it and thanks for taking the time to comment. Hopefully the job went smoothly for you.

Great video! My only (very small) suggestion is that you break loose the fluid line nut, then barely cinch it back up just until it stops leaking. Then take out the top bolt, then break the bottom loose, then finally - right before fully clearing the bottom bolt - only then take off the line. This keeps you from having fluid dripping all over you while you are removing the cylinder mounting bolts. Just a thought. The pressure bleeder is a very handy tool! Good recommendation. Thx!

Good video. Every clip is relevant information no useless dialog, and even included tool sizes needed unlike most.

[@MostlyHelpful]

Thanks Justin, very good of you to let me know and really glad it was helpful. 👍

Thanks for sharing James, I also have an issue with my clutch slave cylinder and the bad news is . mine is very space restricted in the E91 so, I'm not looking forward to this task but, a need must .
You made it look easy so I too have ago.cheers

[@MostlyHelpful]

Thanks Daniel, glad you found the video useful. Good luck with the job on your E91. 👍

Well done. Thanks for the brevity.

[@MostlyHelpful]

Thanks for watching the video Patricio and I hope you found it useful for your own BMW.

The old fluid does actually look a bit like cloudy cider!

[@MostlyHelpful]

I've never seen fluid like it - awful! It had a fluid change not that long ago but they clearly only did the brakes so I'll do a full system flush just to be sure.

[@Whosaiaze]

Another great video - and backing music I've not heard before!!

[@MostlyHelpful]

I have now worked out how to use the RUclips Audio Library so there will more to come!

[@DangerousDaedric]

I just put a new one in about 2 months ago and it went out

[@MostlyHelpful]

[@thechosenones100]

thanks. Nice and easy video to follow. Mine just went out while going to get groceries, dammit!

[@MostlyHelpful]

Thanks for the comment, although sorry to hear yours has failed. Thankfully though it's all a relatively easy fix. Good luck with it!

Great video.... thanks

Thanks for the comment and glad it was useful.

[@berenise-t454]

hey ! great vid ! i was thinking of getting the same slave cylinder you got but wanted to make sure it would be ok for the 325i and if it was a good part ? thanks!

[@MostlyHelpful]

Thanks Berenise, I appreciate it. Assuming yours is an E36 325i then I'm sure this will be fine. The modification that my Alpina has over a regular 325i don't touch the clutch or gearbox so those parts on my car are just regular ones as fitted to any manual 325i. Good luck with the job.

[@Eazye442]

@@MostlyHelpful hello, should be the same for 320i?

[@MostlyHelpful]

@@Eazye442 Yes, It should be the same but do check on www.realOEM.com first.

Thanks so much help me a lot

[@MostlyHelpful]

That's great to hear Alberto and thanks for taking the time comment.

[@Eazye442]

Where to buy that can you connect to the brale system?

[@gasisthepastendoil]

steel...vs alluminum

[@MostlyHelpful]

I was swapping like for like so I don't think aluminium comes in to it.
